I bought the last two 12 packs of TP in my town and went thru the drive thru beer store and traded one for a 15 pack of Keystone. Doubled my money!

Before I left the house to go to the store today, I checked on my toilet paper supply and saw that I still have two big packages (54 rolls) and several rolls in each bathroom all of which was bought over a month ago. I always buy 2 or 3 big packages of toilet paper (also paper towels and tissues) because they don't go bad. I don't want to constantly have to buy 6 rolls whenever I come up short at home.

I have a friend named Bill Sellers whose family ran the Wentworth Military Academy in Lexington, MO for generations. He posted this very interesting story about the Spanish Flu Epidemic during WW1. "On November 11, 1918, World War I ended. My hometown of Lexington, Missouri had been largely under quarantine that fall due to the worldwide influenza pandemic. My great-grandfather Sandford Sellers ran Wentworth Military Academy in town. The school was on the strictest of quarantines: sentries patrolled the campus, no visitors were permitted, cadets were not allowed to leave the grounds, and not a single case of the flu developed. When word arrived that the war was over, the whole town celebrated. Church bells rang, bonfires were lit, and everyone congregated around the Courthouse Square. Wentworth declared a holiday and temporarily suspended the quarantine. The cadet corps paraded downtown and on to Central College for Women to serenade the girls. Within a few days, the first student was diagnosed with the flu. By the next week, Wentworth closed and the school gymnasium was turned into a hospital, overflowing with patients. Many students and townspeople didn’t survive."
